Yesterday the Internal Market Bill (a fundamental part of Johnson’s Brexit plan) made it to the committee stage in the House of Lords. This bill is infamous for allegedly breaking international law, so the Lords weren’t all that keen, leading them to amend the bill removing key sections. So in this video, we discuss what happened and what this means for the future of Brexit.

Hold on stop the Bus …. The uk did Not agree to the WITHDRAWAL AGREEMENT … Sharia May signed the agreement knowing full well that… SINCE THE 2016 referendum, she did not have the power to do so because 17.4 million Britons were against any negotiation with the EU … TRAITOR MAY is an insider agent of the EU ACTING FOR AND ON BEHALF OF THE EU … Any contract must have the consent of both parties and in this case may Deliberately went against the will of the people she claimed to represent …. therefore her actions were ULTRA VIRIS ( She acted beyond her authority as a public servant) thus the withdrawal agreement … is only binding on the individuals who signed it NOT THE WHOLE OF THE UNITED KINGDOM !!! It is in effect an illegal contract between the EU and their Agent in the British parliament so screw the EU .

Really hope they do delay it because hopefully that kills (at least) 5 birds with one stone:
1) Makes the bill useless
2) points out that the political system of the UK is broken and horrible
3) Hopefully gins up enough motivation to get rid of the house of lords altogether
4) Hopefully gins up pro-independence sentiments in Scotland by reminding people that the HoL still exists and sitll has the Lords Spiritual ffs.
5) Reminds people that the government is still trying their best to ram through a bill which goes against their own brexit deal because … Tories.

Parliament has given the executive the power to nuke Paris and Brussels if it so wishes at a time of its choosing – doesn't mean it will or wants to, and it would be considered by many to be a breach of international law; but parliament gave the executive that power. With no due respect to the Lords at all, this ship sailed decades ago – the only question now is how long the Lords can survive, and it's not looking good. This bill is going to be law – and no, it doesn't matter if it's today or in a year (and it won't be in a year) exactly as the government wants it. By the way it's a complete barefaced lie to claim (as many have) that the bill itself breaks international law, it does not – it gives the governments powers that could potentially break a single treaty of questionable validity that it in itself breaks the GFA. That isn't unusual in UK (or any other country's) law and it doesn't automatically lead to the position that it will be used to break international law or the text or intent of the treaty at issue – but that if it does the bill makes it clear it is to only be used from a position of self-defence from a hostile act, if we're talking about international law.

A huge disincentive to independence is the uncertainty surrounding consequences. If Scotland ever became independent and demonstrated a successful economy I suspect that it will become far easier to persuade people to the independence cause. Far more so than simply posing the hypothetical scenario … “if Scotland were independent and part of the EU …”.
Without Scotland the U.K. would likely be permanently conservative, further accentuating the divide between Wales and the rest of the country.
In that environment I can see popularity for welsh independence growing very quickly.
IMO if Scotland goes independent then it is game over for the U.K.

Gearing towards re-election. It’s incredulous how BoJo got elected to begin with, a racist scheming buffoon as premiership?

As bad as I think it would be if the original bill was passed, I think even worse would be if this situation is used to diminish the House of Lords even further.
I know people will say that the Lords are not elected by the people, etc, etc. But it actually a body of people whose job it is to have knowledge of things (like law, economy, science,etc) and not just a bunch of politicians that are more worried about re-election

Because this is a non-trivial matter of principle, it would seem unlikely that the Lords would willingly assent to being steamrollered by the Commons if they insist (disrespectfully) in resubmitting the objectionable part of the bill. Rather than doing so, the Commons would be much more well advised to revise the bill as necessary before resubmitting it to the Lords. Otherwise, the majority in the Commons would be running the risk of being perceived as insolent fools by the people of the UK.

Really don't get the issue with them being "unelected". Seems like most people are simply focusing on the fact that the masses did not vote them into their seats in the House of Lords, and totally ignoring any other reason they are there. That premise is based upon the assumption that elected officials are somehow better. It's based upon further assumptions that they 1. Actually truthfully or competently represent the will of the people who voted for them, 2. Unlikely to change this stance while they are in office, 3. Morally and intellectually competent, as supposedly analyzed and judged upon by the people, and finally the best 4. the people as a voting mass support and maintain the desired level of morality and intellectual competency.
I can think of a lot of levels where that argument breaks down. On my own part, as a non-British citizen, I do find that the House of Lords to be the more competent chamber and more representative of the will of the people. It's likely because that between upbringing and cultural instillation, even hereditary seats are respectable. There are less internal political drivers, as even the Lords affiliated with a party ethos often break from them, having almost no obligation to them. And for appointed seats, such appointment has been more described by evaluation of ability and as a reward for accomplishments, by peers who already hold the highest office and therefore have some ability themselves, as opposed to a likely uninformed and disparate public. Just because they were elected by the people, doesn't mean they are incapable of representing the will of the people. In fact I find the opposite to generally be the more untrue…
Of course, perhaps the real answer may be that people are opposed to them being unelected because that implies that as an individual, you as a voter don't appear to have a hand in your own fate. A historically universal human conceit and display of ego.
In any case, even for the most purist of elected democracy supporters, the House of Lords is not capable of passing law or enacting it. It maintains a check upon laws before they come into effect, a sort of "common sense" sniffer, if you will. One that the bill in question here is failing, badly. Think of it as an army of expert lawyers who specialize in constitutional law. And you don't elect most of your lawyers, do you? (yes some, but not all) As the video states, its very unlikely the House of Lords will even be able to block the bill in any shape or form. What they're telling you is, hey citizens and peers, the elected government is doing this stupid thing, please take note. We're not happy and we've had our say on it. Don't say we didn't warn you.
